Condition: Chronic Low Back Pain · Sponsor: University Hospital, Angers
This clinical trial investigates the feasibility of integrating immersive virtual reality (VR) technology into a functional restoration program (FRP) for patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP). The study aims to assess the acceptability, usability, and impact of a VR headset on both healthcare providers and patients participating in a group-based rehabilitation program. Chronic low back pain is a leading cause of functional disability worldwide and significantly impacts quality of life. Current rehabilitation strategies, including FRP, focus on improving physical functioning through multidisciplinary approaches. However, the role of emerging technologies, particularly VR, in enhancing these rehabilitation programs remains underexplored. VR has already shown promise in reducing chronic pain and improving motor abilities, but its application in a group rehabilitation context for CLBP is novel. The study will recruit healthcare providers and patients from several centers that are part of the Lombaction network. Participants will use a VR headset designed specifically to improve motor skills and reduce pain. The primary objective is to evaluate the acceptability of the VR device by healthcare providers and patients, as well as the usability and adherence to the VR program. Secondary objectives include assessing the impact of VR on kinesiophobia, pain, functional abilities, and motor imagery capabilities. This pilot study will provide valuable insights into the feasibility of …
